A Day in Hodgenville Kentucky

by Richie

Downtown Hodgenville

Hodgenville Kentucky 

It’s pronounced Haw-Gen-Ville. Population 3,200 and the seat of LaRue County. (view map)

Originally the town was called Hodgen’s Mill, after an early settlement. Locals still add the S to the name, and for a hundred years so did the US post office. So you’ll often hear folks say Hodgensville, regardless of the official spelling.
